Until BMW get their act together, a 135 is a non starter for us.

Well if you look at the M135i here M135i deal I got a 3 door S3 with a few options and after a lot of pushing for £2k more.TitanTim wrote: Don't know what discounts you can get on S3s but if closer to the 1 Series I would be seriously tempted next time around Always loved my old A3 1.8T Sport but were sensible prices new back then.

Although we run our Quattro A4 on vredestein sessanta all year round (I've got a disco 3 on winters) it's still occasionally driven on snow an ice and while it has enough traction to get going when other 2wd would flounder (especially a BMW on runflats) it has the same braking ability as any other non winter tyre equipped car.TitanTim wrote:
